Special Prosecutor “at least 5 years in prison”
Decisive judgment on the 30th
In Samsung Electronics Vice President Lee Jae-yong’s trial for the destruction of “Gukjeong Nongdan”, the professional judges’ evaluations were mixed on the activities of Samsung’s Compliance Committee. The special counsel insisted that Vice President Lee be jailed for at least five years.
According to the court on the 21st, in a follow-up trial held by Vice President Lee at the Seoul High Court First Criminal Division hearing, Park Young-soo’s team of special prosecutors argued that “the outcome of this assessment does not it satisfied the fact that the group headed by the judiciary was a terrible system. “
The Special Prosecutor’s Office said that former constitutional judge Kang Il-won, appointed by the court, said that eight of the nine detailed assessment items directly related to Vice President Lee were in fact insufficient. Attorney Kim Gyeong-soo, recommended by Vice President Lee, also emphasized the fact that it was rated as insufficient at 6 out of 9 points.
Regarding the recommended sentence range, he said, “The recommended sentence range for this vice president is between 5 and 16 years and 5 months,” he said. . The special prosecutor’s office emphasized that “the application of the law should not vary from person to person.”
On the other hand, Vice President Lee also expressed the opposite logic. It is known that Kang and Kim evaluated the compliance committee’s monitoring activities for senior management positively, but only the accountant Hong Soon-Tak recommended by the special prosecutors was evaluated negatively.
Vice President Lee said, “The Compliance Committee handled 833 agenda items over eight months and took 129 steps to present opinions,” he said. “Vice President Lee also spoke to the public about the guarantee of union activities and the abandonment of fourth-generation management.” In addition, it is reported that the affiliates indicated by the expert judges against the possibility of non-compliance with the recommendations or withdrawal, delay in countermeasures and insufficient investigations related to the merger with Samsung C&T.
Regarding the digitization of the positive and negative evaluations of each item, the special prosecutor said that “the effectiveness and sustainability of the Compliance Committee cannot be evaluated in terms of O (O) and X (X)”. “Do” he insisted.
It is probable that at the decision hearing the judgment on the effectiveness and sustainability of the Compliance Committee of the Judiciary will be heard. However, he emphasized that this is not the most important prayer condition. In the Compliance Committee’s evaluation, the opinions of the professional judges did not coincide. Vice President Lee’s decision hearing will be held on the 30th.
